APPENDIX I

INFORMATION ON RETIRING DIRECTORS

The following is the information, as required to be disclosed by the Listing Rules, on the Retiring Directors proposed to be re-elected at the AGM.

ONG Wui Leng, independent non-executive director, aged 59, joined the Group in 2004 and has more than ten years of experience in corporate banking. She also has many years of experience in corporate finance and management. Ms. Ong graduated from the University of London, United Kingdom with a Bachelor of Science (Economics) in Management Studies and completed her Master of Practising Accounting from Monash University, Australia. Since April 2013, Ms. Ong is an independent non-executive director of Hwa Hong Corporation Limited, a company whose shares are listed on the Stock Exchange of Singapore. From 1 January 2017, Ms. Ong is also an independent non-executive director of QAF Limited, a company whose shares are listed on the Stock Exchange of Singapore.

The term of office of Ms. Ong as the independent non-executive director is the period up to her retirement by rotation in accordance with the Company’s Bye-Laws.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, Ms. Ong had personal interest in 250,000 shares in the Company and 120,000 share options in the Company. She also had personal interest in 64,000 shares in an associated corporation of the Company within the meaning of Part XV of the SFO. She received a director fee of HK$280,000 for the year ended 31 December 2019.

MA Shiu Sun, Michael, independent non-executive director, aged 51, joined the Group in 2012 and holds a Bachelor of Science (Economics) from London School of Economics, University of London, a Bachelor of Laws from University of Sydney and a Postgraduate Certificate of Laws (P.C.LL) from University of Hong Kong. Mr. Ma has been a practicing lawyer for over ten years and is practicing as a partner and notary public in a Hong Kong law firm in the areas of commercial and corporate matters.

Mr. Ma has a service contract with the Company for two years to 31 March 2021 and is subject to retirement and re-election at annual general meetings in accordance with the Bye-Laws of the Company.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, Mr. Ma had 150,000 share options in the Company. Other than disclosed above, he had no interest in the Company within the meaning of Part XV of the SFO. He received a director fee of HK$280,000 for the year ended 31 December 2019.

APPENDIX II EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR PURCHASE OF SHARES

This appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required by the Listing Rules, to provide requisite information to shareholders for their consideration of the repurchase mandate.

1. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were 277,966,666 Shares in issue.

The exercise of the mandates in full, on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased prior to the date of the AGM, could accordingly result in up to (i) 55,593,333 Shares being allotted and issued; and (ii) 27,796,666 Shares being repurchased by the Company.

2. REASONS FOR REPURCHASES

The Directors have no present intention to repurchase any Shares but consider that the mandate will provide the flexibility to make such repurchases when appropriate and beneficial to the Company. Such repurchases may enhance the net assets value of the Company and its assets and/or its earnings per Share.

3. FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

In repurchasing Shares, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with its Memorandum of Association and Bye-laws and the applicable laws of Bermuda. The Company is empowered under its Memorandum of Association to repurchase Shares pursuant to and in accordance with Section 42A of The Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda, as amended. The Bye-laws supplement the Company’s Memorandum of Association by providing that this power is exercisable by the Directors upon such terms and subject to such conditions as they think fit. Bermuda law provides that the amount of capital repaid in connection with a share repurchase may only be paid out of either the capital paid up on the relevant repurchased shares, or the profits that would otherwise be available for distribution by way of dividend or the proceeds of a new issue of shares made for such purpose. The amount of premium payable on redemption may only be paid out of either the profits that would otherwise be available for distribution by way of dividend or out of the share premium or contributed surplus accounts of the Company. Under Bermuda law, a company’s repurchased Shares shall be treated as cancelled upon purchase and the company’s issued share capital diminished by the nominal value of those shares accordingly (but such repurchase is not to be taken as reducing the amount of the company’s authorised share capital).

As compared with the financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2019 (being the date of its latest published audited accounts), the Directors consider that there might be a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company in the event that the repurchase mandate is exercised in full. However, the Directors do not propose to exercise the repurchase mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements of the Company or the gearing levels which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

APPENDIX II EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR PURCHASE OF SHARES

4. SHARE PRICES

The highest and lowest prices at which the Shares were traded on the Stock Exchange during each of the previous twelve months and the period from 1 April 2019 to the Latest Practicable Date were as follows:

Per Share
Month Highest Lowest
HK$ HK$
April 2019 4.10 3.97

June 2019 4.04 3.82

September 2019 3.75 3.50
October 2019 3.50 3.20
November 2019 3.30 3.19
December 2019 3.14 2.95

February 2020 3.02 2.63
March 2020 2.68 1.81
April 2020 (up to the Latest Practicable Date) 1.95 1.90

5. DIRECTORS, THEIR ASSOCIATES AND CONNECTED PERSONS

None of the Directors nor to the best of their knowledge and belief having made all reasonable enquires, none of their associates (as defined in the Listing Rules) have any present intention, in the event that the mandate is approved by shareholders, to sell the Shares to the Company.

No connected person (as defined in the Listing Rules) has notified the Company that he/she has a present intention to sell the Shares to the Company nor has he/she undertaken not to do so in the event that the Company is authorised to make purchase of the Shares.

6. UNDERTAKING OF THE DIRECTORS

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange to exercise the power of the Company to make purchases pursuant to the propose resolution in accordance with the Listing Rules and all applicable laws of Bermuda, and in accordance with the regulations set out in Memorandum of Association and the Bye-laws of the Company.

– 6 –

APPENDIX II EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR PURCHASE OF SHARES

7. TAKEOVERS CODE

A repurchase of Shares by the Company may result in any increase in the proportionate interests of a substantial shareholder of the Company in the voting rights of the Company, which could give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Hong Kong Code on Takeovers and Merger (the ‘‘Takeovers Code’’).

As at the Latest Practicable Date, to the best of the knowledge and belief of the Company, Gold Sceptre Limited held approximately 51 per cent of the issued share capital of the Company. In the event that the Directors of the Company should exercise in full the power to repurchase the Shares which is proposed to be granted pursuant to the resolution, the shareholding of Gold Sceptre Limited in the Company would be increased to approximately 56 per cent of the issued share capital of the Company and such increase would not give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

8. SHARE REPURCHASES MADE BY THE COMPANY

The Company did not purchase any of its Shares (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise) in the six months preceding the Latest Practicable Date.
